Hi I started taking Citilopram 30mg (Celexa) 2 yrs ago because had Vertigo followed by depression. Tried everything to get rid of Vertigo, inlucing MRI Scan, so Dr put it down to stress/anxiety so stayed on them. Get loads of flatulence, muzzy headaches,bad breath - sick of it. Have tried 10mg and started getting dizzy again. Back on 20mg 3 months ago gonna try one every other day because want to get off them cos i do feel happy and positive and life is better now but I know the vertigo will come back, so then what. Which is worse Celexa or Vertigo. Anyone know out there. Lor

Wow! Seems as if I'm one of many, many folks with Doxycycline issues. Was prescribed it for symptoms arising from a bad tick bite. Now, in my 5th day of a 10-day course, I have the crushing exhaustion, the mild nausea, the sudden hot flashes and sweats (I didn't even get those during an unmedicated menopause), the aches, the muzzy, on-another-planet head symptoms. I'm thinking that the side effects are better than, say, Lyme or Tularemia – but whew! This has been a stark realization that even if you're a "good patient", even if you read everything that's given to you in connection with a drug, you're still not getting even half the story. And doctors in this managed care world certainly aren't going to tell us. Thanks to everyone who has shared info on this site!
